Roosevelt, Theodore. Fear God and Take Your Own Part. George H. Doran Company, New York, 1916.

Price: US$225.00 + shipping

Condition: Near Fine

Description: Octavo, xvi, 414pp. Yellow buckram, title in dark green on spine and front cover. Statement "Printed in the United States of America" on copyright page, which does not appear in the first edition. In scarce publisher's second edition dust jacket, lacking the $1.50 retail price on the spine, closed tear along front hinge, bright illustrations, some wear at hinges, advertising on verso. The publisher considered this the "cheap version," in that it bastardized the sales of the true first edition. (Cole & Vail, A44c) A nice example. Theodore Roosevelt served as the 26th President of the United States. He was a prolific author, writing more than 18 books during his lifetime, beginning with The Naval War of 1812 in 1882. His other notable works include The Winning of the West, African Game Trails, and The Rough Riders.

Price: US$5625.00 + shipping

Description: Second state binding of tan cloth with black lettering. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the front endpaper: "Inscribed for/Roger S. Lewis/with the best wishes/of/Theodore Roosevelt/Thanksgiving Day 1917/pp 103-109." In the pages Roosevelt cites he advocates universal service with mandatory military training as part of high school, the results being especially beneficial to immigrants in an effort to integrate them into a national identity. "The fundamental evil in this country is the lack of sufficiently general appreciation of the responsibility of citizenship." Spine and covers lightly soiled, more so to the spine which is faded. Some pencil notations in text, including the pages Roosevelt points out; an old bookseller's description tipped-in to the front pastedown. Otherwise unmarked, tight, and square. Very Good

Roosevelt, Theodore. Fear God and Take Your Own Part.. George H. Doran Company, New York, 1916.

Price: US$12500.00 + shipping

Description: First edition of this collection of essays by the twenty-sixth President of the United States. Octavo, original cloth. Association copy, inscribed by the author to his younger sister on the half-title page, "Darling Corinne, read the first chapter and the conclusion, T.R. To Mrs. Douglas Robinson 9 E 63rd St New York." In very good condition. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. An exceptional association. Fear God and Take Your Own Part is a collection of articles Theodore Roosevelt wrote, largely for Metropolitan Magazine, some six years after he left the presidency. The title is another way of saying that a nation must have the power and will for self-sacrifice as well as the power and will for self-protection. In the book, Roosevelt, who also wrote extensively on the outdoors, vigorously sets forth the "principles of true Americanism" that still reverberate throughout the nation today.
